Was this a hosted domain and Mailman? If so, the hosting provider should have removed your Mailman list when you quit paying your bill. > Later on, someone else got the domain and hosted with >an ISP outthere, nothing to do with me.

This looks like a password reminder email. uranium.nocdirect.com is the current host_name attribute of the mailman (site) list that sent the mail, xyz.com is the host_name of the list(s) for which the password reminders are being sent. >There's not much info about >nocdirect.com that I can find on the web.

Mailman itself is not aware of any of this. It would be up to the hosting provider to delete old lists in a domain or server before turning it over to a new customer. Note that the current xyz.com domain may have nothing to do with this. The list still exists on some box somewhere and still has a host_name attribute of xyz.com, but this doesn't mean that that box has an address in the xyz.com domain. <http://uranium.nocdirect.com/mailman/listinfo> is a valid URL for a Mailman installation. It is this installation, wherever it is, that still has your list on it. It is unlikely that you could access it either by web or email at the xyz.com domain, since that address is presumably now hosted elsewhere, but if you append your list name to the above URL or to the <http://uranium.nocdirect.com/mailman/admin> URL, you might be able to access your old list and delete all the members or possibly even delete the list if the site allows it. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
